Astronomers have made an extraordinary discovery—a "Carousel Lens," a rare alignment of galaxies that could provide unprecedented insights into the mysteries of dark matter and dark energy.

The James Webb Space Telescope photographs a rare Einstein ring, a cosmic deception formed by gravitational lensing, giving us a glimpse of deep space and the universe's secrets.

Gravitational lensing often evokes images of a cosmic funhouse mirror: duplicated galaxies, dramatic arcs and distorted shapes. But the web-like, large-scale structure throughout the universe also ...
